Coyote Cinema: Insomnia
Mar. 3rd, 2016 12:35 amPeople make jokes about how European films move slowly and don't so much end as stop. This is part of the reason why. Considering that two people die over the course of the movie, that's kind of surprising. A man who is an awful person does something awful after another man has done something awful. He covers up his awful thing, except that somebody else knows he did something awful but Thin Blue Line says she keeps it buried. All the while, he's getting more and more ragged from lack of sleep because the sun is up all the time, which only adds to the air of ennui and disconnection. And then the awful man drives back to Sweden. Fin.
